Why it matters

Scientific Significance & Real-World Value

CEMB's genetic screening service helps assess inherited risk for breast and ovarian cancer, using DNA analysis to identify pathogenic variants associated with hereditary cancer syndromes.

Results are intended to support informed clinical decision-making alongside genetic counselling, not to replace a full clinical evaluation.

Evidence-led outcome

Genetic testing to help assess inherited breast and ovarian cancer risk, supporting early detection and informed care.

Core Benefits at a Glance

  • DNA-based hereditary risk assessment
  • Supports early detection and preventive care planning
  • Findings should be interpreted with genetic counselling
